Original Silver Pearl
lol your first line is priceless!
The story of Sensi Seedsâ Silver Pearl is one whispered in hushed tones amongst Amsterdamâs cannabis connoisseurs, a tale steeped in mystery and intrigue. It begins not in a high-tech laboratory, but amidst the misty mountains of Nepal, where ancient strains have thrived for centuries.
Legend has it that a renowned botanist, driven by a thirst for rare genetic treasures, ventured deep into the Himalayas, seeking out elusive landrace varieties. He spent years traversing treacherous terrain, enduring harsh weather and perilous encounters, all in pursuit of cannabis strains whispered to possess unparalleled potency and unique medicinal properties.
Finally, he stumbled upon a hidden valley, shrouded in mist and guarded by ancient traditions. There, nestled amongst terraced fields and whispering waterfalls, grew a strain unlike any he had ever encountered: a plant with silver-dusted leaves that shimmered in the sunlight, producing buds dense with resinous crystals. This was the primordial ancestor of Silver Pearl.
The botanist carefully collected seeds from these sacred plants, bringing them back to Amsterdam, where Sensi Seeds awaited. Ben Dronkers, the founder of Sensi Seeds and a pioneer in cannabis preservation, recognized the exceptional qualities of this Himalayan treasure.
He nurtured the seeds with utmost care, crossing them with other legendary strains like Skunk #1, creating a hybrid that retained the potency and unique silver sheen of its ancestor while adding complexity and depth to its aroma and flavor profile. This meticulous breeding process culminated in the birth of Silver Pearl - a strain that captured the essence of its Himalayan roots while embodying the innovative spirit of Sensi Seeds.
Today, Silver Pearl stands as a testament to the enduring power of exploration, dedication, and the pursuit of exceptional cannabis genetics. Its story is a reminder that the most remarkable strains often emerge from unexpected journeys, whispering secrets of ancient traditions and unlocking new frontiers in cannabis cultivation and enjoyment.
Very cool, have been seeding true sliver pearl for years. Itâs an amazing strain IMO. Best of luck with your grow.
Some guy in Germany just posted that he inherited a The Seed Bank Silver Pearl reproduction, seems to be from a private grower who ordered back in the 80âs and kept them pure. He also got NL#1, Four and More, Durban and Mazar I Sharif.
Dope one ^^
@CocoaCoir Omg you had me laughing so hard. Well done.
Okay so I have to ask. Are you planning on a seed increase since itâs apparently rare to find it pure
Off to a great start
Whats the provenance on these Rocket? Silver pearl always seemed an interesting line that got overshadowed by the NLs and Skunks
âEarly 2000âsâ Sensi Silver Pearl, which was really the final 90âs batch before losing the NL5 mother.
Iâm going to be straight up honest. I hope you do great work with these and I see a pack of them someday.
I had a cut of Silver Pearl in the late 90s. It was awesome.
Is the bust that cost them all these og moms known at all? People consistently reference it
Bust or lack of maintenance, I honestly couldnât tell you which was their down fall. Technically they still have the same genetics but theyâre far from being F1s.
For some reason I feel like I REALLY need this story to be true. đ«Ł
I had Silver Pearl for one of my first grows around 1996 and it didnât look like the pictures here and in Sensis catalogues. So, to say that THE Silver Pearl was like this or like that in the old days is wrong. Truth is that Sensi never had stable lines for many if not most of their varieties. And nothing has changed for the better, lolâŠNot with Sensi and not with any of the older seed breeders. I saw a newer Interview with one guy from Serious Seeds recently and he talked about exzessive breeding work and going far as to F10 or F11 and I just stopped listening cause they donât even found a way in all those years to fix their BubblegumâŠ
I had a vape session with eagle bill in the dam with a silver pearl x
Many many years ago lol
Great job on your grow excellent work!
I confirm for the 2023 millesime, actually revisiting their catalog (no intermediate). To be honest, some new variations are welcome. The Big Bud was never as strong that the 2023 by example, in staying terpy like she was ^^
They wake up a bit late, selling on their past performances and hype. The 2023 AK47 is just a pure insult, they sell it in Beta version now. âTo be cleaned and finishedâ.
So much whales to save from greed and laziness now, Silver Pearl included.
Iâll be settling down for the show
